Over the years, Indian skipper Rohit Sharma has always been one of the wittiest. Whether in candid interviews or press conferences, he has come up with several witty one-liners which have made the fans burst into laughter. Once again, the aggressive opener won the day with a chuckle-worthy moment.

Ahead of the Group A game against Hong Kong, the commentators working for the official broadcasters of the tournament tried to speak with the Indian skipper. The right-hander, who was supposedly doing the knocking, pulled out before the commentators such as Irfan Pathan, Sanjay Bangar and the host of the pre-match show could reach him. Sharma was heard saying "Mai ja rha hu bhai " hilariously.

Talking about the game, Hong Kong won the toss and elected to bowl first in Dubai. After all, till that game, no team batting first had won a game. However, the Men In Blue decided to change the trend. Batting first, they scored 192/2, thanks to Suryakumar Yadav and Virat Kohli's unbeaten partnership of 98 runs. KL Rahul, who has been looking to get a big score since making a comeback, struggled throughout his innings of 39-ball 36.

Former India skipper Kohli scored an unbeaten 59 off 44 including three sixes and a four. On the other hand, Yadav scored an unbeaten 68 off just 26 balls including six fours and as many sixes. In reply, the Red Army started well after scoring 51 for the loss of two wickets after the powerplay. However, they could only score 101 runs in the rest of the 14 overs to lose the game by 40 runs. Now, the Nizakat Khan-led side would need to win against Pakistan to qualify for the Super Four. On the other hand, Rohit Sharma's men are already in the next round.
